About Tresco Island

At the heart of the Isles of Scilly archipelago, 28 miles from the Cornish coast, Tresco Island is a family-run business comprising the whole island of Tresco and the Hell Bay Hotel on the neighbouring island of Bryher.

With timeshare and rental cottages, a 16-bedroom inn, two restaurants, a world-famous garden, a spa, an art gallery, a shop and a working farm, Tresco is a subtropical island known for its deserted bays, aquamarine seas and exceptional guest experiences.

Just across the water on the neighbouring island of Bryher, Hell Bay Hotel stands as Scilly’s highest-rated hotel and restaurant. Our boutique hotel offers 25 suites, a 3AA Rosette restaurant, a Crab Shack and wellness facilities - a haven of calm amidst the wild seascape of Bryher's west coast.
